A sensitive and selective fluorimetric sensor for the assay of ascorbic acid (AA) using silver nanoparticles as emission reagent was investigated. In this study, silver nanoparticles were prepared based on aqueous–gaseous phase reaction of silver nitrate solution and ammonia gas. The nanoparticles were water‐soluble, stable and had a narrow emission band. They were used as a fluorescence probe for the assay of ascorbic acid on its quenching effect on the emission of silver nanoparticles. The principal reason for quenching is likely to be a complexation between ascorbic acid and silver nanoparticles. The quenching mechanism was established by Stern–Volmer law. Under the optimum conditions, the quenched fluorescence intensity was linear with the concentration of ascorbic acid in the range of 4.1 × 10?6 to 1.0 ×10?4 m (r = 0.9985) with a detection limit of 1.0 × 10?7 m . The RSD for repeatability of the sensor for the assay of ascorbic acid concentration of 3.0 × 10?5 and 4.0 × 10?6 m was found to be 1.5 and 1.3%, respectively. The proposed method was applied to the determination of ascorbic acid in vegetables and vitamin C tablets. Copyright © 2009 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd. 相似文献

We describe a new approach to DNA hybridization assays using metal-enhanced fluorescence. Thiolated oligonucleotides were bound to silver particles on a glass substrate. Addition of a complementary fluorescein-labeled oligonucleotide resulted in a dramatic time-dependent 12-fold increase in fluorescence intensity during hybridization. Proximity to silver particles resulted in a decreased fluorescence lifetime. This effect is thought to be the result of enhanced fluorescence from fluorescein near metallic silver particles. Hybridization could thus be measured from the decay kinetics of the emission, which can be measured independently from the emission intensity. These results suggest the use of silver particles as a general approach to measure DNA hybridization as a method to increase the sensitivity of DNA detection. 相似文献

建立了一种基于纳米金复合探针的基因芯片膜转印核酸检测新方法。首先,用纳米金颗粒同时标记检测探针P2和两种长短不同且生物素化的信号探针 (T10,T40),其中检测探针与靶DNA 5¢端互补,两种信号探针起信号放大作用。当靶DNA分子存在时,芯片表面捕捉探针P1 (与靶DNA分子3¢端互补) 通过碱基互补配对原则结合靶DNA分子,将其固定于芯片上,同时检测探针通过与靶DNA 5¢端互补配对将纳米金复合探针结合于芯片表面,结果在芯片表面形成“三明治”结构,后通过链霉亲和素-生物素反应,使芯片表面对应有靶DNA分子的部位结合上碱性磷酸酶,最后利用BCIP/NBT显色系统使芯片表面信号结果镜面转印至尼龙膜表面。当检测探针和信号探针摩尔比为1∶10,T10和T40摩尔比为9:1时可以检测1 pmol/L合成靶DNA分子或0.23 pmol/L结核分枝杆菌16S rDNA PCR扩增产物,检测结果通过普通的光学扫描仪读取或肉眼直接判读信号有无。本芯片检测系统灵敏度高,操作方法简单、快速,不需要特殊仪器设备,在生物分子的检测方面具有较高的应用价值。 相似文献

Many genomic assays rely on a distance-dependent interaction between luminescent labels, such as luminescence quenching or resonance energy transfer. We studied the interaction between electrochemically excited Ru(bpy)(3) (2+) and Cy5 in a hybridization assay on a chip. The 3' end of an oligonucleotide was labelled with Ru(bpy)(3) (2+) and the 5' end of a complementary strand with Cy5. Upon the hybridization, the electrochemiluminescence (ECL) of Ru(bpy)(3) (2+) was efficiently quenched by Cy5 with a sensitivity down to 30 nmol/L of the Cy5-labelled complementary strand. The quenching efficiency is calculated to be 78%. A similar phenomenon was observed in a comparative study using laser-excitation of Ru(bpy)(3) (2+). The hybridization with the non-labelled complementary or labelled non-complementary strand did not change the intensity of the ECL signal. Resonance energy transfer, electron transfer and static quenching mechanisms are discussed. Our results suggest that static quenching and/or electron transfer are the most likely quenching mechanisms. 相似文献

We find that the catalytic activity of gold nanoparticles (GNPs) on luminol-H2O2 chemiluminescence (CL) system is greatly enhanced after it is aggregated by 0.5 M NaCl. We use this observation to design a CL detection of DNA hybridization. It is based on that the single- and double-stranded oligonucleotides have different propensities to adsorb on GNPs in colloidal solution, and the hybridization occurred between the probe DNA and target DNA can result in aggregation of the GNPs, producing strong CL emission. In the assay, no covalent functionalization of the GNPs, the probe, or the target DNA is required. The assay, including hybridization and detection, occurs in homogenous solution. The detection limit of target DNA (3σ) was estimated to be as low as 1.1 fM. The sensitivity was increased more than 6 orders of magnitude over that of GNPs-based colorimetric method. The present CL method for DNA hybridization detection offers the advantages of being simple, cheap, rapid and sensitive. 相似文献

Binding of small oligonucleotides to the periphery of folded RNA can provide insight into the secondary structure of complex RNA in solution. To discriminate between bound and unbound fluorescein-labeled 2'-O-methyl RNA probes, we use ionically coated gold nanoparticles to selectively adsorb unbound probes and quench their fluorescence. The target is the 3' untranslated region of Bombyx mori R2 RNA. Fluorescence indicates that R2 sequences complementary to some of the probes are accessible for binding in the three-dimensional structure. Hybridization occurs under homogeneous conditions in the absence of the gold nanoparticles so that steric issues associated with chip-based assays are avoided. The assay is compatible with well plate formats, takes less than 5 min, and requires only 2 pmol or less of unlabeled target RNA per probe sequence tested. 相似文献

Chemiluminescent acridinium ester derivatives have been synthesized and covalently attached to suitably modified synthetic DNA oligonucleotides. Attachment of acridinium ester label to primary aliphatic amine group(s) present in the synthetic DNA probe molecule is rapid and efficient. Methods have been developed for efficient separation of acridinium ester-labelled DNA from unincorporated labelling reagent and underivatized DNA. The basic hydrogen peroxide detection reaction and photon counting conditions for measurement of chemiluminescence emission from acridinium ester-labelled DNA probes have been optimized. Under optimal conditions, the observed detection limit for the labelled DNA (1:1 mole ratio) is the same as for the free acridinium ester label, which is 2 attomole sensitivity in the best case studied. 相似文献

Aptamer biosensor for protein detection using gold nanoparticles 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
Combining gold nanoparticles (GNPs) as fluorescence quencher and aptamer as probe, we have developed protein biosensors by using DNA-modified GNPs. We examined how the experimental design, such as the type of interaction between DNA strands and GNPs, temperature, and microenvironment of aptamer, influences the recognition ability of the biosensor. Under our experimental conditions, the recognition of protein by the complex of dye-labeled DNA hybridized with aptamer that is immobilized on GNPs (Ap-Im-GNPs) shows the best character in protein detection. 相似文献

The effect of nucleobase-specific fluorescence quenching on in situ hybridization with rRNA-targeted oligonucleotide probes 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Oligonucleotide probes labeled with fluorescent dyes are used in a variety of in situ applications to detect specific DNA or RNA molecules. It has been described that probe fluorescence might be quenched upon hybridization in a sequence specific way. Here, a set of 17 oligonuleotides labeled with 6-carboxyfluorescein was used to examine the relevance of nucleotide specific quenching for fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) to whole fixed bacterial cells. Probes quenched upon hybridization to a guanine-rich region of purified RNA in solution were not quenched upon FISH. Among other factors the high protein concentration within cells may prevent quenching of probe fluorescence in situ. 相似文献

Guanine quenching of a fluorescence-labeled DNA probe is a powerful tool for detecting a mutation in a targeted site of a DNA strand. However, a different guanine adjacent to a targeted site can interfere with detection of a point mutation, resulting in unsatisfactory sensitivity. In the current study, we developed a simple method to improve sensitivity of the guanine quenching method using a masking DNA oligonucleotide. The simple addition of a masking DNA oligonucleotide was found to mask the interference of a different guanine in a target oligonucleotide on fluorescence and to enhance difference in the quenching ratio between wild-type and mutant oligonucleotides. Based on this strategy, we succeeded in discriminating various mutations from the wild-type YMDD motif of the hepatitis B virus DNA polymerase gene using guanine quenching with a masking oligonucleotide. 相似文献

The interaction of glucose‐derived carbon quantum dots (CQDs) with silver (Ag) and gold (Au) nanoparticles (NPs) was explored by fluorescence spectroscopy. Both metal NPs cause an efficient quenching of CQD fluorescence, which is likely due to the energy transfer process between CQDs as donors and metal NPs as acceptors. The Stern–Volmer plots were evaluated and corresponding quenching constants were found to be 1.9 × 1010 and 2.2 × 108 M?1 for AgNPs and AuNPs, respectively. The analytical applicability of these systems was demonstrated for turn‐on fluorescence detection of the anti‐cancer drug, 6‐thioguanine. Because the CQD–AgNP system had much higher sensitivity than the CQD–AuNP system, we used it as a selective fluorescence probe in a turn‐on assay of 6‐thioguanine. Under optimum conditions, the calibration graph was linear from 0.03 to 1.0 μM with a detection limit of 0.01 μM. The developed method was applied to the analysis of human plasma samples with satisfactory results. 相似文献

Metal nanoparticle constructs of particles of different sizes and materials were prepared, using DNA as connecting element. Therefore, gold and silver nanoparticles were functionalized with complementary DNA sequences that enabled a controlled coupling. The well‐established system based on thiolated DNA was thereby complemented with amino‐functionalized DNA. The realization of specific DNA‐DNA bonds due to hybridization was controlled by the ionic strength. The results demonstrate the potential of the combination of different particle sizes, composition as well as coupling chemistry in order to realize controlled conjugates of nanoparticles.

Hybridization of nucleic acids to surface-tethered oligonucleotide probes has numerous potential applications in genome mapping
and DNA sequence analysis. In this article, we describe a simple standard protocol for routine preparation of terminal amine-derivatized
9-mer oligonucleotide arrays on ordinary microscope slides and hybridization conditions with DNA target strands of up to several
hundred bases in length with good discrimination against mismatches. Additional linker arms separating the glass surface from
the probe sequence are not necessary. The technique described here offers a powerful tool for the detection of specific genetic
mutations. 相似文献

Membrane penetration depth is an important parameter in relation to membrane structure and organization. A methodology has been developed to analyze the membrane penetration depths of fluorescent molecules or groups utilizing differential fluorescence quenching caused by membrane embedded spin-label probes located at different depths. The method involves determination of the parallax in the apparent location of fluorophores, detected when quenching by phospholipids spin-labelled at two different depths is compared. By use of relatively simple algebraic expressions, the method allows calculation of depth in å. This method has been used to determine the location of fluorophores in NBD-labelled lipids and anthroyloxy-labelled fatty acids in model membranes and of the membrane embedded tryptophan residues in the reconstituted nicotinic acetylcholine receptor. 相似文献

A novel fluorescence quenching test for the detection of flavonoid degradation by microorganisms was developed. The test is based on the ability of the flavonoids to quench the fluorescence of 1,6-diphenyl-1,3,5-hexatriene (DPH). Several members of the anthocyanidins, flavones, isoflavones, flavonols, flavanones, dihydroflavanones, chalcones, dihydrochalcones and catechins were tested with regard to their quenching properties. The anthocyanidins were the most potent quenchers of DPH fluorescence, while the flavanones, dihydroflavanones and dihydrochalcones, quenched the fluorescence only weakly. The catechins had no visible impact on DPH fluorescence. The developed test allows a quick and easy differentiation between flavonoid-degrading and flavonoid-non-degrading bacteria. The investigation of individual reactions of flavonoid transformation with the developed test system is also possible. 相似文献

The fluorescence characteristics of ethidium bromide (Eb) complexed to calf thymus DNA have been examined using fluorescence lifetime analysis for a range of DNA (effective nucleotide concentration) to Eb molar ratios. Control of both temperature and ion concentration is necessary for reproducible analyses. Eb complexed to double stranded DNA has a maximum fluorescence lifetime of 23 ns and is easily distinguishable from a fluorescence lifetime value of 1.67 ns corresponding to unbound Eb. In a solution of calf thymus DNA containing excess Eb a binding equilibrium is reached, and this corresponds to one Eb molecule for every five nucleotides. With increasing amounts of unbound Eb, the fluorescence lifetime of the DNA-Eb complex decreases with a concomitant drop in the steady state fluorescence intensity, without a change in the amount of Eb bound to DNA. It is concluded that unbound Eb, acting via a quenching mechanism, shortens the fluorescence lifetime of bound Eb and consequently decreases the overall fluorescence intensity. This means that a different approach is necessary: time-resolved fluorescence spectroscopy directly distinguishes between a decrease in fluorescence intensity due to quenching by an excess of unbound Eb from that due to a decrease in Eb binding to double-stranded DNA. These studies suggest that techniques which measure total steady state fluorescence intensity of bound Eb in order to infer relative amounts of double-stranded DNA must be interpreted with caution. For such assays to be valid it is essential that no unbound Eb be present; otherwise a variable correction factor is required to account for unbound Eb. 相似文献

The study of small drug molecules interacting with nucleic acids is an area of intense research that has particular relevance in our understanding of relative mechanism in chemotherapeutic applications and the association between genetics (including sequence variation) and drug response. In this contribution, we demonstrate how the sequence-specific binding of an anticancer drug Dacarbazine (DTIC) to single base (A-G) mismatch could be sensitively detected by combining electrochemical detection with biosensing surface based on gold nanoparticles. 相似文献

Synthetic DNA probes attached to microarrays usually range in length from 25 to 70 nucleotides. There is a compromise between short probes with lower sensitivity, which can be accurately synthesized in higher yields, and long probes with greater sensitivity but lower synthesis yields. Described here are microarrays printed with spots containing a mixture of two short probes, each designed to hybridize at noncontiguous sites in the same targeted sequence. We have shown that, for a printed microarray, mixed probe spots containing a pair of 30mers show significantly greater hybridization than spots containing a single 30mer and can approach the amount of hybridization to spots containing a 60mer or a 70mer. These spots with mixed oligonucleotide probes display cooperative hybridization signals greater than those that can be achieved by either probe alone. Both the higher synthesis yields of short probes and the greater sensitivity of long oligonucleotides can be utilized. This strategy provides new design options for microarray hybridization assays to detect RNA abundance, RNA splice variants, or sequence polymorphisms. 相似文献

DNA hybridization detection in a microfluidic channel using two fluorescently labelled nucleic acid probes 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

A conceptually new technique for fast DNA detection has been developed. Here, we report a fast and sensitive online fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) detection technique for label-free target DNA. This method is based on changes in the FRET signal resulting from the sequence-specific hybridization between two fluorescently labelled nucleic acid probes and target DNA in a PDMS microfluidic channel. Confocal laser-induced microscopy has been used for the detection of fluorescence signal changes. In the present study, DNA hybridizations could be detected without PCR amplification because the sensitivity of confocal laser-induced fluorescence detection is very high. Two probe DNA oligomers (5'-CTGAT TAGAG AGAGAA-TAMRA-3' and 5'-TET-ATGTC TGAGC TGCAGG-3') and target DNA (3'-GACTA ATCTC TCTCT TACAG GCACT ACAGA CTCGA CGTCC-5') were introduced into the channel by a microsyringe pump, and they were efficiently mixed by passing through the alligator teeth-shaped PDMS microfluidic channel. Here, the nucleic acid probes were terminally labelled with the fluorescent dyes, tetrafluororescein (TET) and tetramethyl-6-carboxyrhodamine (TAMRA), respectively. According to our confocal fluorescence measurements, the limit of detection of the target DNA is estimated to be 1.0 x 10(-6) to 1.0 x 10(-7)M. Our result demonstrates that this analytical technique is a promising diagnostic tool that can be applied to the real-time analysis of DNA targets in the solution phase. 相似文献
